Computer HD cards

[jimbop99]

This is my situation. I am currently running BeyondTv 4.3 with a Dvico fusion lite card in it. It is working quite well. The only exception is channel 4, which the video freezes for a second and then resumes. This can be corrected by using mpeg2repair. The resulting file plays perfectly. I recently picked up the ATI HDTV Wonder and am having the same problem. Namely channel 4. Is there any particular card that does not have a problem with channel 4? Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Edit: I forgot to mention that I am getting 100% signal strength as indicated by the Dvico signal meter.

At this time I don't know of any card that can deal properly with "Statistical Multiplexing", which is what channel 4 is using.....I'm happy I've got a Time Warner feed otherwise I wouldn't be able to watch 4 digital on 1/2 of my tv's.

I haven't had many problems with my Avermedia A180 card.  Every once in awhile I'll see a ghosted image appear in the background on 4, but the picture doesn't freeze.
